I know so many people that left the nbc board (myself included). That board is the worst of them all and a terribly inaccurate gauge of general fan opinion.

But apparently that does not stop TPTB from listening to it.

I know I left that board. There were always threads about threads about praising this couple or this character. Then there would be a thread against a character/couple. There are not a lot of posts about what was actually was happening on the show, especially if it didn't go along with a fanbase. If you didn't agree with the majority...look out. I would not be surprised there were people working for NBC who only look at the things they want to see and post to get their agenda across. The Sony board is even worse. But unfortunately these seem to be the only boards TPTB at Days listen to.
